Abstract

This paper describes the diurnal and latitudinal variations in the 5577 Å zenith nightglow intensity, as observed during a shipboard expedition along the Pacific coast of South America. These results show good agreement with a similar set of data obtained in 1962. Comparison of these data with simultaneously obtained results for the 6300 Å nightglow suggest that, on a gross scale, the excitation patterns for these two emissions are unrelated.
